Andalusite is a gemstone of quiet brilliance and natural optical intrigue, celebrated for its remarkable pleochroism—a phenomenon where the gem displays multiple colors depending on the angle of view. In high-quality Andalusite, hues of olive green, russet brown, golden amber, and reddish-orange shimmer together in perfect harmony, creating a visual depth few gemstones can rival.
Named after the Spanish region of Andalusia, where it was first discovered, Andalusite is now primarily mined in Brazil, Sri Lanka, and occasionally Spain and the United States. Though not widely known, its rarity and unusual visual effect have made it a hidden treasure among collectors and connoisseurs.
With a Mohs hardness of 7 to 7.5, Andalusite is durable enough for everyday wear, yet its subtle elegance is often reserved for fine, artisanal designs. Each stone is unique, with color zones that shift with movement and light—making Andalusite jewelry truly dynamic and captivating.
